Please see the Special Alert in the special Federal Section! There is little scientific evidence regarding effectiveness of the death penalty as a deterrent to crime, relegating the debate to center on philosophy. The fundamental questions are: Is execution a just punishment for murder? Is the Death Penalty a deterrent to crime? This page is intended to help you make up your mind about the Death Penalty. The pro and con (for and against) material is placed side-by-side on the page so that neither position has a placement advantage. We think the best order to view the material with is the left column links above first (top to bottom), and then the right column (top to bottom)-or simply scroll down the page, but save the poll (which is just below) for last. The `Special State Sections' have brief descritions of pending legislatiion in those states and links to find and contact their legislators and governors.

"The Convention" sets universal standards for the safety, freedom, and well-being of the world's children, yet the United States of America has not signed this important document. We need to impress upon the U.S. Administration that children's rights are human rights, and we need our young adults to know about their rights and to inform the world about their needs. What protections do children deserve? What do they need to "develop to the fullest"? Our answers to these questions will determine whether or not our future world is progressive, fair, and humanitarian.

Background for Teachers Classroom Activities Washington State Constitution Senate Members ... Back to School Coordinators High School Lesson Plan 1 - How Do Teenagers Get a "Voice"? If you want to use these lesson plans in conjunction with a visit from a legislator, remember to coordinate your plans with the legislator. Specifically, if the activity requires preparation by the legislator, ask whether the legislator will be able to prepare. Also, if the students are interested in particular issues, alerting the legislator will likely make for a more interesting visit. Rationale of the Lesson Objectives At the conclusion of this Lesson, students should be able to: • identify ways in which they can become aware of the issues introduced in their Washington state legislature. • clarify and state their views, based on evidence, on current issues likely to come before their legislature. • understand that the effectiveness of a person's voice depends upon the ability of the person to clearly and persuasively state his/her position.

77. Catholic Worker Carries Message Against Death Penalty To Students People s opinions about the death penalty are closely Having spoken at Bishop MaginnHigh in Albany and Notre Dame/Bishop Gibbons school in Schenectady http://www.evangelist.org/archive/htm/0430work.htm

Catholic Worker carries message against death penalty to students By KATE BLAIN Assistant Editor It's ironic, Fred Boehrer says, that many teenagers who espouse the death penalty wear crucifixes around their necks. "If Jesus was around in 1998, they could be little electric chairs or lethal injection needles," he informs the teens. "Jesus' crucifixion is capital punishment. We wear crucifixes as a reminder of how Jesus died. I think we've lost sight of that connection." A co-founder of Albany's Catholic Worker house, Emmaus House, with his wife, Diana Conroy, Mr. Boehrer has lectured at high schools, parishes and religious education classes in the Albany Diocese on his choice to live in solidarity with the poor as a Catholic Worker. In doing so, he speaks on advocating for those in need and on protesting capital punishment. Time for thought "When Gov. Pataki was elected in New York State, there was a great sense of enthusiasm about bringing back the death penalty," Mr. Boehrer told The Evangelist. "I think that enthusiasm did not involve a whole lot of clarification of thought about what was involved in the death penalty. I'm hoping that with our visiting public and Catholic schools, we're providing a spark for people to take the time and consider the issues." During the winter, for example, Mr. Boehrer spoke to a 12th-grade social studies class at Colonie Central High about the death penalty. He began by asking whether the students were against capital punishment; not one of them raised a hand.
